If a student is caught eating in class, they have to throw away their munchies. Some teachers make you throw away your munchies whether you are eating them or not. Students hurry between classes, going to their lockers, talking to their friends, and at the same time going to the candy machines. There are two machines in the north commons from which students can buy munchies. But are they getting their moneys worth? Prices are mostly going up instead of going down. The average price of a candy bar is 30 cents. But for that 30 cents you don’t get much because the bar is continually shrinking. The candy bars that are most commonly sold are Payday, Choco Lite, Heath, Hershys, and assorted mints. They also have a “Guess What” for those who don’t care what they eat. The potato chip machine is next to the candy machine. For 25 cents you can have your choice of any various snacks, from pop-corn to corn chips. And for big spenders, 40 cents brings Zingers, dan- ishes, Ding Dongs, Suzy Qs and Koo Koos are only some of the cakes sold. The machines are closed during third hour and aren’t open until fifth hour. Federal regulations prompted such restrictions to encourage students to buy a hot lunch. The pop machines were rarely opened because the students had a problem with leaving the cans on the ground and taking pop cans on the bus. The school also made a profit on the Borrowing money is one of the most common things done near the candy machines.

There were problems related to the machines, however. The machines took the money but refused to fork-over the goods. The school would not refund the money. Victims names were put on a list and, hopefully, the money would eventu- ally be returned. But the office rarely sees the munchkin who maintains the machines. There have been a few occa- sions where no candy was placed in a slot. When the knob was pulled, nothing came out. Then there were times when they put the wrong candy in the wrong slot and what came out was not a “Guess What?” but rather, a genuine “surprise!” Yet, in spite of the risks, fast food always won out over the growling stom- ach. With the tardy bell just seconds away, the Zingers zinged, the Koo-Koos kooked, the Pepsi pepped and the epi- demic of five minute munchies ended for one more hour. fill Zimmerman and Andy Richart need a Coke and a smile to keep their days going.

Daisy decorations and “Ice Age,” a band imported from Indianapolis, greeted guests at the annual Junior- Senior Prom, May 23.
